Maybe Cory Doctorow?

Steak and some kind of berries-- strawberry, blueberry, kiwiw, whatever. Something about tossing a raspberry or something in your mouth between bites of filet mignon is just so damn aristocratic

There was a good Royalist? I'm guessing you mean Rene, because it sure wasn't Gary the Cryptofascist or Measurehead or the Racist Lorry Driver. Imo the only thing that stopped Rene from becoming someone like Dros were his relationships with Gaston and Evrart. If he had been "alone" the way Dros was then the investigation may have gone quite differently

Employers would ultimately see it as not their mess, not their problem. They already pay the minimum wage they legally can, if they wanred to pay their employees a living wage then they would already be doing so. They know that they will lose their current experienced servers, but they also know that there will always be desperate workers who have no choice but to accept the crumbs that are offered.

"Yeah, so I beat a mouse at Go Fish"

I think the way to go right now is to create or post in broader, more top-level kind of communities. Lemmy doesn't really have a lot of traffic, and what would probably be a small or medium community over on Reddit is a niche community over here.

To avoid that, find or make something like /c/shoes then post your Vans content there. You may find a larger audience more quickly, and can break out in to smaller subcommunities when there's enough content submitters to justify it

Then for you, it's not just about security and privacy, I guess

That's not the only way ads are shown to you, though. For example, some youtube content creators like Internet Comment Etiquette will include ads from their major sponsors as part of the video itself. When that happens, you trust the security and privacy of the website enough to serve you content during the non-advertising parts of it, so what changes now that the content is an ad?

As a thought experiment, imagine if you were able to ascertain with 100% accuracy that an ad was not a security or privacy violation. Would you whitelist that ad server? For example, if viewing ads on your PC had as little potential for harm as viewing ads in the newspaper did, would you still block them?

Why isn't it?

Halfway through the linked post, when he talks about if you like twilight as a man

Aw man, I forgot about his random homophobia :(

Here's a picture of Ronald Reagan meeting with Afghan mujahideen in the White House in 1983
